Rangers’ decision to gamble on the young defender backfired as the side struggled for balance and attacking thrust down the left, exposing a lack of depth and decisiveness in recruitment. Meghoma’s mistake in the Europa League opener was costly, but more importantly, it highlighted where Rohl must focus his first major signing.
Known for his aggressive, front-foot footballing philosophy — inspired by mentors like Hansi Flick and Ralf Rangnick — Rohl demands intensity and offensive intent from every position. That makes it essential for Rangers to target a player who embodies those values: a forward-thinking, dynamic talent capable of breaking lines and turning defence into attack in an instant.
The German coach has already shown glimpses of his tactical blueprint, but to bring it fully to life, he needs an “offensive” signing — a player who can make things happen in the final third and complement the likes of Todd Cantwell and Abdallah Sima.
After years of inconsistency in the attacking department, this could be Rohl’s chance to stamp his identity on the squad. One statement signing in January could not only lift the dressing room but also signal the start of a new, fearless era at Ibrox.
